Because There is Always Something to be Thankful for…

Thanksgiving is here again. My favorite holiday. It isn’t about presents. It isn’t about the mad frenzy to get everything just right. It’s simple and sweet. A day to gather with loved ones to share a meal and to count our blessings.

Every day should be Thanksgiving.

It’s all too easy to think about what we don’t have, to complain about what is wrong in our lives or in this world. We all need to take a moment to think of what we do have. To hold on tight to those who matter. To cherish another day to live as fully as possible, dawn to dusk.

Mother Teresa once said, “Be happy in the moment, that’s enough. Each moment is all we need, not more.”

While you’re picking out something good in your life, I give you a challenge. What can you do to make a difference, to be the reason someone else wears a smile and says…thank you?

Happy Thanksgiving to all, near and far. Wishing you health, hope and happiness. Always.
